SeedBlink and Doorway team up to provide investors with great investment opportunities in top-tier European startups

SeedBlink, the tech-specialized venture investment platform, and Doorway, a leading Italian fintech startup focused on online equity investing, have entered a strategic partnership to provide investors with unique access to high-potential investment opportunities in international hi-tech startups and scale-ups.

The partnership will bring considerable benefits to both platforms’ customers, including private bankers, financial advisors, family offices, and wealth managers, who will be able to offer their clients a constantly evolving portfolio of high-profile deals. Under the partnership, SeedBlink’s investor community will gain access to unique deals selected by Doorway in the Italian and international markets and viceversa. This intends to facilitate cross-border investment at a pan-European level through the consolidation of the financial infrastructure that is available to technology SMEs.

SeedBlink’s Managing Partner Ionuț Pătrăhău stated: “The growth of the European tech sector looks promising, but the fragmentation of the investment market across countries with each having their own corporate legal system, is not really beneficial. The challenge, therefore, is to build a European network with local representation in each country. Doorways leadership in Italy will bring our investors unique access to high-potential investments with an Italian DNA, validated by a local knowledgeable player. The partnership is in line with our goal to effectively connect investors and tech startups on a single European platform, building a financial ecosystem that will support the development of a European tech hub.”

We’re thrilled to partner with SeedBlink, the leading tech-specialized venture investment platform in Europe. Our partnership will provide Doorway’s investor community with access to SeedBlink’s top-tier European tech startups and scale-ups. This is a unique opportunity for our investors to participate in some of the most promising startups in Europe and beyond. We believe that creating a highly diversified portfolio, through the combined screening and validation expertise of Doorway and SeedBlink, can bring a real advantage in terms of economic value creation for our investors”, added Antonella Grassigli, Doorway’s CEO.

This new partnership between SeedBlink and Doorway aims to provide investors with a constantly evolving portfolio of high-profile deals, in advanced or follow-up rounds, with faster exit prospects and often already invested by international venture capital funds. With SeedBlink’s access to an exclusive European tech deal-flow and Doorway’s local expertise, this partnership is poised to deliver significant value to investors looking to invest in high-growth, innovative startups. Both platforms are authorized (SeedBlink under ECSPR, Doorway by CONSOB) for extended investors’ protection.

Prior to the collaboration with SeedBlink, Doorway has already secured a partnership with Ourcrowd, a global online venture investing platform, named the most active venture capital investor in Israel by Pitchbook.
